Glutaraldehyde is an organic compound that belongs to the Aldehyde


functional groups. Glutaraldehyde is an organic compound with the molecular
formula CH2(CH2CHO)2. A liquid such as oil color and is widely used to sterilize
medical and dental equipment. These compounds are also used for the
processing industry-and as chemical preservatives.

Pictured above is the structural formula of glutaraldehyde


- IUPAC name : Pentane-1,5-dial
- Other names : Pentanedial, Glutardialdehyde, Glutaric acid dialdehyde, Glutaric aldehyde,
Glutaric dialdehyde, 1,5-Pentanedial
Glutaraldehyde is produced industrially by the oxidation of cyclopentene and by the
Diels-Alder reaction of acrolein and methyl vinyl ether followed by hydrolysis. Like other
dialdehydes (e.g., glyoxal), it does not exist as the dialdehyde but as the hydrate. These
hydrates adopt several structures.

Monomeric glutaraldehyde can polymerize by aldol condensation reaction yielding


alpha, beta-unsaturated poly-glutaraldehyde. This reaction usually occurs at alkaline pH
values.
